A plan to conserve threatened species - National News: "“There are a lot of issues that should be taken into consideration while checking out the animals,” he said.
“Species size, gestation period and the genetic makeup of the animals are very important.”
There are also plans to have a “frozen zoo” of cells taken from endangered species to use for the cloning process.
Dr Wani said that the frozen zoo is a storage facility where genetic material taken from animals is gathered and stored at very low temperatures, usually -196C.
He added the centre had so far cloned eight camels. Injaz, the first camel in the world to be cloned, celebrated her second birthday last month."
